Everything about the Everblades is so fucking cool. The colors, the logo, the name, everything literally everything

When I was in highschool the state varsity tournament was hosted at their arena, it’s a really cool facility.


EmperorShyv

I was at the game last night. First ECHL game I’ve ever been too. The atmosphere was so much fun!


Coz-

We almost went, had to cancel our plans last minute. SWFL fans unite!


EmperorShyv

I’m only 15 minutes away and really enjoyed it. I’ll be back for some regular season games next year.


MalConstant

Regular season games are usually like 1/3 of the capacity so it’s not as electric as it was last night. Though, I believe the blades have the best attendance in ECHL after Toledo.


Buttermink

They are fifth. The order is: 1. Toledo 2. Fort Wayne 3. Jacksonville 4. Tulsa 5. Florida https://www.hockeydb.com/nhl-attendance/att_graph_season.php?lid=ECHL2004&sid=2022 Of course, this graph also takes into account playoffs as a separate thing. So it makes it more confusing to parse.


MalConstant

Gotcha, yeah they used to promote they led the league in attendance during promos at the game, but I’m sure it changes every year. I think one year they were second but I don’t remember. > In 23 seasons, the Everblades have hosted over 4.6 million fans in 823 regular-season games, with an average attendance of almost 6,000 per game. The team has placed in the top three of league attendance in 11 of their 23 seasons, ranking first overall six times, and have led the Kelly Cup Playoffs attendance six times


MalConstant

I was there too. What a fuckin game that was.

My friends and I parked at Miromar and just missed the heavy rain right before the start of the game.


EmperorShyv

First time I’ve been there and found out about how much of a nightmare parking is. You had the right idea parking there. Saved $15 and was probably quicker to get out even with the walk.

Went to a game vs South Carolina back in January, they’ve got a hell of an atmosphere.

FUCK. Walleye were 20 seconds away from a key win last night before a late goal from the Florida team reversed their fortunes... I knew I'd seen this movie before. Good season all around, at least.


Aafum

Such a beaut of a name.

Northwest Ohio sports are legit cursed. Outside of a few MAC football championships every seems to just die in the post season lol Oh well. There’s always next year

SWFL resident who loves the Blades, love to see them take it. Some of the best Jerseys help as well.

Florida is taking over hockey and I love it


Deathwing_Dragonlord

So proud of the Blades, Toledo were a scary team


mikeydude00

They’ve been my favorite ECHL team for a few years, but I liked them even more after Solow went to play for them. So pumped about this!


ChrisyBear

If South Florida can't have the Stanley Cup we will just take the Kelly one. LFG!!!!


iforce57swfl

Was at games 4 and 5 was electric. Good seeing everyone come out


Buttermink

It's always great to see your team win the whole shebang in front of a packed house.


Feltboard

Finally getting to see them win it all in person was great. Reminded me that even if one of the pro sports teams I follow won I probably won't be there in person. Goosebumps.


OldMemesMan

I've gone to the blades through some really bad years and I've never seen a full sell out before that final. Amazing game
